Sport Durham helps grow sporting events and sport culture in Durham Region. To support this initiative we investigated questions like:

*What are some examples of effective community sport councils and what are the measures by which they are recognized as effective?
*Who typically leads community sport councils?
*What are the resources required for community sport councils to be effective (people and time)?
*Are there regions (consisting of multiple municipalities) where community sport councils are effective?
*What are the attributes and approaches that make them effective?
*Is there an opportunity to establish an effective sport community council in Durham Region?
